Jewelry: Woven wire bracelet
108 kudoz

Woven wire bracelet

Instructions

I just started with the base wires and started weaving.
Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Funky, Casual, Whimsical, Mod

Materials

natural stones, glass pearls, silver plate wire 26 gage and 16 gage.

What was your inspiration?

I love bracelets and the basket weave. I thought the green beads would look good with the wire.

What are you most proud of?

My weaving is getting tighter. I still have some weak spots but it improves with each piece.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Let go and see what happens!

Love this! I love the freeform look of it. Convo me on Etsy and we'll talk. I've had an Etsy shop for a while now and maybe I can give you some support.

Thanks so much for your kind words. I just opened an Etsy shop and am working on getting views up. I have only sold a couple of things and was starting to think that my stuff wasn't sales worthy. Crummy feeling! Your encouragement hit the spot today!

I love meaking cuffs. They are really time consuming so if you sell them you don't make much except for the people who are fabulously good and can charge mega for their designs but I actually just do them just to enjoy the process!

Okay, for a lack of better words, this bracelet is just plain super cool! Any chance I could convince you to provide a free tutorial?

I totally free formed this cuff. I don't think I could remake it again myself! I am not even sure what gage wire I used for the frame! The next cuff I make I will pay attention and do some measuring and then I can write instructions.
